Welcome to AIHce EXP Virtual Advancing Worker Health and Safety 1 Poster Specifications Your poster should include: The title of your accepted proposal Your name, any co-authors or mentors, your institution A description of research goals and methods A presentation of results A summary of major conclusions Future directions for the research A short bibliography or list of references Acknowledgments (citing any help received, mentors, or sources of funding) 2
Design Considerations Use large , uncomplicated fonts The print should be legible from at least three to four feet away Convey your information with colorful images and figures Balance your text and images Use headings, numbers, white space, or color frames to organize the information Think of reader “gravity”—how the viewer’s eye tends to move from top to bottom and from left to right — and incorporate that flow into your design 3 Design Considerations Include an abstract — a concise summary of your work, written in a way that makes the reader want to take the time to study your poster Engage the reader by including an image, model, or photo in your introduction Communicate the methods used with a flow chart, figures, or process diagram and a concise description Articulate the take away lessons in an understandable manner While the poster serves as a visual aid while you talk, others may view it when you are not there 4
5 Including an Oral Presentation Try incorporating a QR code into your poster! The main job of a poster is to provide audiences information on your research, but it can be a tricky balancing act to provide attendees with all the details while creating something visually pleasing. As you will not be directly speaking to the viewers of your poster during an author attend time, using a QR code or link on your poster will allow viewers a place to go to view more details, without taking up space with numbers and words. QR codes can also be used to share your contact information, social media accounts, a YouTube video you’ve posted about your study, additional images, or links back to a website.. 6
